Skiing for advanced skiers and experts

Our instructor David Slattery explains what you can expect from BB Ski School
as an advanced or expert skier......

Baqueira has wide, quiet pistes. Where better to hone your carving skills, practice riding switch
or learn some racing techniques? Are you really using your skis as effectively as you can?
Book one of our experienced instructors for a private lesson and they will show you what can be achieved and how to achieve it.

Away from the pistes, Baqueira offers accessible off-piste terrain.
There are five intinerary runs (avalanche controlled, but unpisted) which offer
long descents. These itinerary runs can be challenging and are best tackled with a
guide, who will give you technical tips as well as showing you the route!

There are not many areas of Europe where heli-skiing is permitted - Baqueira is one of those areas.
Whilst not cheap, heli-skiing is the experience of a lifetime, and bookable through BB Ski School. It can offer extreme routes, but the gentler 'iniciation' packages are also popular - a strong intermediate skier would be able to participate. With fully-qualified UIAGM guides, you'll learn how to use all the avalanche safety material before heading off to make fresh tracks.
Please ensure you have the appropriate insurance for off-piste skiing.
